day. Keep up the good work

I was the bus driver from 74- 76 I was in A TAb

I was at Herzo Base from June 1965 to August 1968. I was an 05H (manual morse) operator in the operations building on Dawg trick. I remember right before I shipped out to return to US (land of the round doorknobs), Russia invaded Czechoslovakia and I really feared that I wouldn't be able to leave. As it turned out I was able to out-process and returned home to Nebraska. Some of the best times of my life were those living in Herzogenaurach and traveling around all of Europe. I miss those times and people and often think of them and what ever happened to them.

Hi, I was stationed at Herzo Base from May, 1968 to April, 1971. I worked in the Comm Center, Camera Club, and EM Club. I am looking for Tom Gorek, Ishmael Taylor, and Bill McPeake and anyone else that might remember me. I was married in the Catholic chapel in 1970 to a girl that lived just a few blocks up the street from me in Oshkosh. We are still married, 40 years later. We lived in Hessdorf while we lived in Germany and then we went to Montana, courtesy of the military.

I am looking for Tony Rasgorshek (from NE) he was with the HHB 3/37 F.A. 88-89 (ish) - if anyone is in contact with him - please e-mail. Thanks

I was stationed at Herzo from 1987 to 1989 used to hang at the Omega downtown. If anyone remembers me give me a line

Was stationed at HHB 3/37 FA, RAtt Rig Operator, non morse.....1975-78....if you want, you can write.

I was stationed at Herzo from July 1974-march 1976 with 2/377th FA. (Lance Missiles). I was in Supply 76Y30 Sp4.

Hello! My name is Rafael Olmo and I was stationed in Herzo Base from Feb 1984 to Mar 1987. I was assigned to Bump City 3/37 FA during the first year there, the second year I was assigned to Svc Btry 3/37 to the newly formed Ammo Plt as a chief of section, and finally the last year I went back to Bump City as 1st gun section chief. I remember a lot of good people I was able to meet there. 1st SGT Jones was our first sgt and SFC Bennett was our chief of firing btry. SSG Marquez, SSG Afanador,SSg Howard, are some of the fellow section chiefs there. Some of the best and wildest times I had while in the military was at Herzo. Pablo's corner bar was one of my hang outs so was Martha's place, the Luviduck, Hollywood and at the end of the night there was the Gray Cat to get revived with some great food prior to taxi back to the main gate at Herzo so at 10am get to start it all over again all weekend long. And who don't remember or famous NCO club (what else was at Herzo during week nights). Now, duty there wasn't easy, all those middle of the night alerts praying that you didn't have to leave the motor pool. Who don't remember freezing our butts all day long doing maintenance in the motor pool all day long. Graff wasn't bad in the summer but in winter was another story. How about Nato 23 guard duty 30 days at a time, SA-1B ammo guard, reactionary force, ect, etc. I leaned a lot there about hard work and being an NCO. All those memories will stay in me forever.

My wife (Kathy) and I were at Herzo right after we were married and spent our first 2 1/2 years of married life there, living in Hauptendorf. What a wonderful experience! We loved every minute of it. Some of our favorite activities were going to the Nurnberg PX cafeteria for the "Steak Nights", going to Berchtesgaden, and using our area map and going "Castle Hunting" to all the ruined castles within a radius of 50 or so miles. We were active in the Protestant Chapel, Kathy taught at the pre-school on base for 2 years, and I was the clerk for the 05D Section in the Operations Compound.

Hi! I am a former Army brat, born at the Nurenburg Hospital in 1970 - my dad was stationed at Herzo 1967-1970 - my mom did the books at the PX and played the organ at the chapel occasionally. We lived in Herzo in an apartment. Does anyone remember Ronald Hile from that time period? In 1969 you would have seen him stenciling "Think Pink" on anything that would stay still long enough!! I would love to hear from anyone who knew him, or my mother, Elaine.

I have many fond memories of Herzo. Going downtown to eat,drink a beer and check out the clubs. Also spent many a night at the rod and gun club.And let us not forget the many trips to Graf and or Reforger.Oh happy times.

Great to hear that the memory of Herzo Base lives on. I was stationed with the HHB 210th Field Artillery Group as a medic and as a Drug and Alcohol Counselor.I arrived in Ansbach,Germany Feb 1971 The 210th was moved to Herzo Base in June of that year.I had a great time there and meet alot of good people. I wish I had seen more of the countryside.Always wonder what happened to all the guys that I hung around with. I left with an early out in april of 1973. Vic from Chicago was one person whom tracked me down and was great to talk to him. I do miss the Beer and Wine Festivals. Had some great times. To all the other Veterans " Thanks For your A Job Well Done" I salute you all !!!

I Was stationed in Herzo from Jan 1950 to Oct 1952. Transferred to Bad Abiling to meet the 328th Com Recom.

I found this site by accident and the pictures brought back a lot of great memories. I was stationed at Herzo from Jan-79 to Jan-82 Svc Battery 3/37th FA. I worked in BN Maint Section on the M110 8-inch howitzers. One of my sons was born at the Nuremberg Army Hospital. Graffs and Reforgers were plentiful and frequent. I retired SFC in Aug-98. My herzo experience was the best of all tours. I will dig up some old pics and post them soon.

I was stationed @ Herzo back in 1984 and was assigned to Svc. Battery 3/37 Field Artillery Battalion S-4. Remember: LTC. Floka, CW2 Bob Gaskin, 1SGT. Brewer, Capt. Radunsky, Sgt. Martinez, Sgt. Knoflook, PFC. Jim Maholm, John Reynolds, Chuck Dreyer, SP4 John Case, Steve Shanks, Clyde Williamson just name a few of the many! Graf FTX, Cornerbar, Lavidoc, Gray Cat, & all those good times still live on in my memories!

I was stationed at Herzo Base Bravo Battery 3/37th FA Commo Sec. from Feb 1977 to Aug 1979. I currently work for the US Navy.

Served at Herzo Base, with the 2/156th Maintenance Detachment in the early 80's. Been back several times after the closure of the base. Looking for several friends who served with me during this time.

I was with Service Battery 2/377th FA, 1985-1987. I was looking at "Herzo Base Today" and it does sadden me that the buildings are all gone. I'll dig into "My Past" box and see what I can find and post them.

I was an 05h20 (morse code intercepter) at Herzo Base from May 1968 thru July 1969. I got orders to be there for 3 years but 2 months after my arrival, Russia invaded Czechoslovakia. After being on alert for 16 months, and not being able to take any of my leave, I volunteered on a Levy, not knowing where I was going, and it turned out to be Udorn, Thailand, where I served 20 months.

I was assigned to the 318th ASA(COMSEC) from Feb. 69 to June 70. After two tours in the Nam, I thought this was heaven! While inprocessing I was informed I would be sent to a 12 man detachment at Hohenfels. I was really depressed. But it turned out to be the best 18 months of my 20 year military career. What little time I spent at Herzo Base was great. Great to hear so many people enjoyed their military service days.
